The best kept secret in music

"This Dublin girl found inspiration from her musician father's record collection - must have contained lots of Joni Mitchell, Laura Nyro, Carole King and Grace Slick, judging from these shimmering, soulful folk-rock tunes. Lindfors may have borrowed her dad's elpees, but that superb, subtle voice is all her own." Kevin Courtney - EP review
"It is her remarkable voice that has won many plaudits. Gracefully sincere, and with strong bluesy undertones, Jenny's vocals are a luxurious delight...."
Keith Johnson
- Excerpt
"One of those rare voices that just takes over, and almost eclipses the singer with the size of it's feeling."
Julia Molony, Sunday Independent - Big me up
“Jenny Lindfors will melt your heart with her lush voice.”
Leagues O'Toole, Irish Examiner - Article on HWCH
"The vocal equivalent of belgian chocolate, and just as soothing to the soul"
Ciara McDonnell, In Dublin - Article on upcoming acts
"An acoustic gig on guitars, banjo and percussion offers a rather 1970's folk-pop sounds, with elements of blues, soul and even jazz in there too."
Jackie Boland, Irish Examiner - Article on Jenny
